Folk & Fairytale Books from Scholastic Book Clubs

When I got a chance to take a sneak peek at the Scholastic Book Club selections for June I was so excited to see this 7 book pack of folk and fairytale books. I know so many of you homeschool and/or are doing summer camp at home this year and use weekly themes. These 7 books would be a good addition to your fairytale theme or any family library. DO NOT forget to enter below for a chance to win all 7 of these books from Scholastic Book Clubs.

Goldilocks and the Three Bears by Caralyn and Mark Buehner was my favorite of all the Goldilocks books we read. I liked the modern text, the pop-culture details ( a Smokey the Bear poster on the wall being my favorite) and that it didn’t take itself too seriously. This was my favorite book of this pack. There are hidden images in every picture but I am glad I didn’t notice that note until after I’d read it with my son the first time last year. Now at 5  ( and 35 ), they were still incredibly hard to find and we only found a few throughout the story.

The Three Billy-goats Gruff (Easy-To-Read Folktale) by Ellen Appleby is a simple version of the classic folk tale with cartoon-like pictures. My son knows this story well and the easy read format along with his previous knowledge of the plot helped him read along with me with lots of success.

Hansel and Gretel by James Marshall is not a fluffy retelling of Hansel and Gretel at all. My son who is all about weapons play right now was sucked right into the good versus evil in this scary tale. Now I don’t think I would have read this to my son even 6 months ago because he just wasn’t ready for a scary book but wow did he love it now!  It’s the classic tale of a brother and sister who against all odds find a way to survive the evil stepmother, horrible witch and foreboding forest to get back to their father and live happily ever after. I admit I have been on the fence for a long time about a lot of fairy tales but the conversations that came from this and the connections that my son made between the story and real life.

The Three Little Pigs  by James Marshall is a great classic telling of The Three Little Pigs. My son loved the illustrations and chanted ” Little pig little pig let me come in!” along with me as we read. Now I know there are some versions of this story where the pigs don’t die, this one is not one of them, but it’s not graphic at all. We both really liked this book.

The Little Red Hen by Lucinda McQueen is another easy to read folktale that you are probably familiar with. It’s such a great opportunity to talk about helping others, doing your share, and not being lazy! As you may remember  Little Red Hen worked so hard and her friends didn’t lift a finger ( or paw in this case) and yet were eager to reap the rewards of her hard work. No way you don’t get to be lazy and entitled! My husband and I talk all the time about how we are determined not to raise entitled kids and this story was a great way to talk about these issues at their level.

Chicken Little by Laura Rader was a fun read.  Even if your child can read this solo, please read it to them at least once because it’s just so fun to read out loud ( funny voices optional). My son giggled at me as I read this in silly voices and at varying speeds as the animals got more and more anxious about the sky falling. I also did not miss the opportunity to talk about making sure your info is correct before spreading it and possibly scaring other people. Although not directly related to tattling I can see how this book could be tied into a great lesson about that too.

The Gingerbread Man (Easy-to-Read Folktales) by Karen Schmidt is just such a silly story. What I do like about this tale is that while it still packs the punch of one character eating another like many fairy tales it’s just a gingerbread man so when the fox eats him it doesn’t seem so bad really.  My son loved the repetition of the text and sang along with me as we read. It’s a good story to talk about taunting and showing off. We also played gingerbread man tag later that day, but we skipped the whole cannibalism bit.

      I am torn between the Three Billy Goat Gruff and The Three Little Pigs. I have a renewed interest because of my preschool class.

  2. Jennifer says

    I have fond memories of reading The Gingerbread Man with my grandmother when I was little, so that would have to be my favorite.

  3. Kerri says

    May 29, 2012 at 4:31 am

    My favorite was Goldilocks.

    I have always loved Goldilocks and the Three Bears. I remember my mom using my teddy bears and a doll to act out the story as she read it to me. Wow, I haven’t thought of that in… well, since I was a kid. Thank you for helping me remember a precious moment with my mom AND one that I’m going to recreate for my 27-month old twins.

  5. Alexis says

    May 29, 2012 at 4:48 am

    I loved (still love) the little Red Hen. Maybe because I loved helping my mother in the kitchen and I have fun now including my little girl in preparing food.

  6. Megan says

    May 29, 2012 at 5:06 am

    Three little pigs. Remember trying to huff and puff and blow the page over.

  7. Ashley says

    May 29, 2012 at 5:14 am

    I love Hansel and Gretel! The idea of getting lost in the woods was always thrilling to me. Although it was scary to think of the mean witch hiding in the woods, I loved the sibling connection between the 2 main characters.

  8. Jennifer says

    May 29, 2012 at 5:21 am

    I enjoyed Hansel and Gretel as a kid.

  9. Stephanie J says

    May 29, 2012 at 5:23 am

    That’s easy – “The Three Little Pigs” because I love food!

  10. Bethany says

    May 29, 2012 at 5:40 am

    As a child, I loved (and still do!) “The Little Red Hen.” I loved helping my Grandma in the kitchen, and I especially loved the story’s lesson.

  11. Annie says

    May 29, 2012 at 5:55 am

    My Daughter loves Goldilocks and the Three Bears. She loves when I make different voices for the bears when the are angry. I have to say it’s one of my favorite stories to tell her too.

  12. Marsha says

    May 29, 2012 at 5:55 am

    I loved The Little Red Hen and now it seems my kiddos are loving it too.

  13. Brittany says

    May 29, 2012 at 5:58 am

    Goldilocks and the three bears! My mom always made our oatmeal jussstttt right. I still haven’t been able to perfect her method. We are starting our first homeschool sessions this summer. I can’t wait!

  14. Sarah B says

    May 29, 2012 at 5:58 am

    I love Goldilocks and the Three Bears! And I love that my son has enjoyed it as much as me. It’s one of the few books that he will actually act out with puppets, etc.

  15. Janice says

    May 29, 2012 at 6:06 am

    I loved Chicken Little. My mom used to tell me the story and use silly voices. It’s a great childhood memory.

  16. Ann says

    May 29, 2012 at 6:07 am

    I love The Little Red Hen. My grandparents lived on a farm, and I spent every weekend there along with all my cousins. One of our favorite chores was helping with the chickens–feeding them and collecting eggs. And of couse there were dogs and cats, so all of the characters were real to me.

  17. Cathy R says

    May 29, 2012 at 6:09 am

    The three little pigs!

  18. Alicia B says

    May 29, 2012 at 6:09 am

  19. Monica says

    May 29, 2012 at 6:16 am

  20. Amy D says

    May 29, 2012 at 6:21 am

    I have always loved the gingerbread man and still do!

  21. Stacey says

    May 29, 2012 at 6:23 am

    I have such a hard time choosing a favorite. I think I would say Hansel and Gretel, though there are so many wonderful fairy tales.

  22. Stevie says

    May 29, 2012 at 6:34 am

    My favorite was Little Red Riding Hood. Such a wonderful set of books, thanks for the giveaway chance!

  31. Joanna Kohlbus says

    May 29, 2012 at 7:45 am

  32. Alyssa says

    May 29, 2012 at 7:47 am

    I can narrow it down to two. The Little Red Hen and Hansel and Gretel were two of my favorites.

    My parents called me goldilocks as a kid!

  40. Teri says

    May 29, 2012 at 8:00 am

    My favorite book is ‘Little Red Hen’. I loved the way Hen worked so hard to take care of her family, always a hard worker.

  41. Kara says

    May 29, 2012 at 8:01 am

    I’ve always LOVED The Three Little Pigs. That, and Little Red Riding Hood were my favorites!

  42. Jess says

    May 29, 2012 at 8:06 am

    The Town Musicians of Bremen. We acted it out in class one year and I just loved it!

  43. Lisa Stapp says

    May 29, 2012 at 8:07 am

    My favorite fairytale was Goldilocks and the Three Bears!
    I loved walking in the woods as a child and would have loved to come upon a little cottage like that 🙂 Though I daresay, I would not have gone in because of my upbringing. Going into someone’s house uninvited was simply not acceptable. Would have missed all the fun!

  44. Mel says

    May 29, 2012 at 8:28 am

    My favorite was always the Little Red Hen.

  45. Marie says

    May 29, 2012 at 8:42 am

    What a great collection of books! I loved the Little Red Hen. I remember reading it and re-reading it and listening to it on tape in the car and in my room over and over again…

    Thanks!

  46. Heather says

    May 29, 2012 at 8:46 am

    Loved Goldilocks! Thanks!

  47. Mary says

    May 29, 2012 at 8:52 am

    I used to love Rumplestiltskin (can’t even begin to imagine how it is spelled). I loved it a little less once I read the original, though.

  48. Jennifer Labbe says

    May 29, 2012 at 8:52 am

    The Three Billy Goats Gruff is my favorite.

  49. Lyndi Flugum-Collins says

    May 29, 2012 at 8:56 am

    Hansel & Gretel

  50. Chris says

    May 29, 2012 at 9:02 am

    I loved Hans Christian Andersen as a kid! My favorites were The Snow Queen, and The Little Mermaid (the one in which she can not kill the man she loves even to save herself and so she turns into a daughter of the air).

  51. Jenn says

    May 29, 2012 at 9:19 am

    Loved a strange little book of Russian folk tales my grandmother gave me. Regrettably I can’t remember any of them now!

  52. Sarah Gorman says

    May 29, 2012 at 9:24 am

    I don’t have a favorite fairy tale really – my mom read us whole books when we were little. I very fondly recall my mom reading us “The Enormous Egg” by Oliver Butterworth. She would read to us in the morning as we waited for her carpool buddy to join us before driving to school. WAY better than bedtime stories!

  53. Malia {Playdough to Plato} says

    May 29, 2012 at 9:35 am

    Without a doubt, Cinderella was my favorite.

  54. Ryanne says

    May 29, 2012 at 9:39 am

    The Billy goats gruff; my dad had sound effects when he read it that made it so memorable and fun.

  55. Sleeping Should Be Easy says

    May 29, 2012 at 9:53 am

    I think my favorite fairy tale book was Thumbelina. I loved it so much so imagine my delight when I was at a garage sale and found the exact vintage book that I used to have as a kid. I snatched it up real quick 🙂

  56. missionista says

    May 29, 2012 at 10:07 am

    Jack & the Beanstalk!

  57. Christy says

    May 29, 2012 at 10:09 am

    I don’t honestly remember my favorite, but I can tell you which one totally freaked me out. Little Red Riding Hood. And it wasn’t necessarily the storys fault. My grandmother had a doll that was red riding hood on one side and you flipped her over and she was the grandma and the wolf . That wolf scared me silly.

  58. Jennifer Mitchell says

    May 29, 2012 at 10:21 am

    I really loved The Gingerbread Man. It is a favorite of the 5 year olds that I teach and my 3 year old daughter also. I can’t wait to read it with my new baby boy too.

  59. Rebecca B says

    May 29, 2012 at 10:27 am

    I love James Marshall! As a child my favorite was Cinderella. Today I think the stories that retell Cinderella are a lot of fun!

  60. Christina says

    May 29, 2012 at 10:49 am

    The True Story of The Three Little Pigs.
    All the Wolf wanted was a cup of sugar to make a cake for his grandma.

  61. Emily Falke says

    May 29, 2012 at 11:15 am

  68. Lori Summers says

    May 29, 2012 at 11:48 am

    May 29, 2012 at 12:28 pm

  70. Angie K. says

    May 29, 2012 at 12:37 pm

    May 29, 2012 at 12:49 pm

    As a child I loved reading and watching movies about Rumpelstiltskin. It is such a unique fairy tale and really intrigued me. Would love to win this book pack for my daughter so I could instill a similar love for literature and imagination in her!

  73. Kara F. says

    May 29, 2012 at 1:08 pm

  78. Ellen says

    May 29, 2012 at 1:37 pm

  79. SP says

    May 29, 2012 at 1:57 pm

    My favorite was The Little Mermaid. My mom had a super cool book that made the illustrations look 3D.

    Mom also had a huge book of fairy tales. I don’t remember what the collection was called, but I would love to find it again! My favorite story in that book was Alibaba and the Forty Thieves.

  81. Nicole Lloyd says

    May 29, 2012 at 3:38 pm

    My favourite book growing up would have to be the three little pigs! I would feel the pressure and the excitement that each pig went through. My dad was a fantastic book reader though! I still enjoy reading it to my preschoolers now!

  82. Cassie says

    May 29, 2012 at 4:09 pm

  87. Megan says

    May 29, 2012 at 5:03 pm

    I’ve always liked the Three Billy Goats Gruff. I think it’s the “trip trap, trip trap” sound their little hooves make on the bridge that gets me. 🙂

  88. Ashley says

    May 29, 2012 at 5:28 pm

    Goldilocks was my absolute favorite growing up!

  89. Susan Kendall says

    May 29, 2012 at 5:59 pm

  97. Laurel says

    May 29, 2012 at 8:04 pm

  98. Krista C. says
